A collection of my poetry from the Express It in Eight forum |
| When the day broke, buried in violence Something made my mind up I will spend these days as an island Alone and far away... — Imagine Dragons, "Eyes Closed" Burning, unending push-pull of introversion Fighting against my deepest need for social connections Yet the ceaseless strife of everyday life gets in the way. How am I supposed to be with people when I can't treat them kindly? I retreat to solitude, where peace and quiet reign And I can be alone with my own thoughts and everything I enjoy doing. By myself is my ultimate default mode—but it's unsustainable! I'm doomed to linger on the shore of an island with bridges aflame. 11-18-24 Prompt: adages - "no man is an island." "EIGHT - 11. 18 & 19 .24"  |
